What's happening at Wine and Co. 24 January 2020
Kevin Swart (the Black), Raymond Ndlovu (the Elephant), and Jacques Wentzel (the Vintner) combined their uniquely diverse skillsets in an earnest endeavour to reclaim fun in the creative process of winemaking. They established their title as the rebels of the vine by constantly trying to demystify the winemaking process to all enthusiasts. These three rebels have successfully created a unique range of wines with unrivaled character. Wines that appeal to a wide variety of desires, diverse tastes, and extraordinary occasions. Real wine, for real people.
Come and taste the Black Elephant Vintners wines this Friday 24 January (3pm - 6pm).

Riedel 'O' Wine Tumbler and Decanter Gift Set
The Riedel family has been in the glass business for over 300 years, with 11 generations keeping the family business intact. Claus J. Riedel (born 1925) is 9th generation, and he recognized the effect of shapes on the perception of alcoholic beverages. His work has influenced and changed the appearance of stemware ever since his masterpiece "Sommeliers" was introduced 30 years ago.

About Us
Have you ever heard about a great wine but could never find a bottle for yourself (to share with friends, of course)? Well, the team at Wine & Company do all the hard work for you! We visit wine farms and attend tastings to find, taste, and then stock wine from the smaller Estates and independent winemakers who buy grapes and produce outstanding wine under their own labels – much the same as the French negociants have been doing for centuries. Given that these winemakers make wine in such small quantities, sometimes just a single barrel, their wine will never be found on the shelves of the major retailers, but only in specialist shops like Wine & Company on High Street, Hermanus.
In addition to the great selection of well-known wines and MCC's, we also stock local craft gin and beer, French Champagne, La Trappe Trappist Ales as well as whisky and other spirits. Wine & Company (established in 1998 by Bartho Eksteen) has a well-earned reputation for stocking hard-to-find small-batch wines and we strive to continue this great tradition. If you purchase a bottle of wine from us and it is faulty or you are not satisfied with the quality, we will gladly replace the bottle and return the faulty wine to the winemaker.
Feel free to contact Wine & Company if you need a particular wine and we will do our best to source it for you. We are also able to ship wine locally and to most countries so do ask about international shipping.
